NBC needs to increase the in-arena volume. Some might complain about the SF crowd, but it seems to me that everything else is quiet. Even the refs whistle can be barely heard.

The Warriors may be the GOAT in terms of halftime adjustments. Their 3rd quarters are some voodoo magic stuff.

I don’t know why they signed Chris Paul. It’s not like they need veteran leadership. Chris Paul has been done since that Dallas series in 2022.

Was just getting ready to say Chris Paul looks worthless out there.

Kawhi just doesn’t scare me this year. Maybe he is load managing while playing lol. I thought that even last year he was great. Too early to draw a conclusion.

Anybody catch that Sixers/Wizards game? Crazy. All of the Wizards youth looked good, but they blew a big lead in the 4th and lost. They should've won that game.

This Sixers team is intriguing. They're 4-0 now. Maxey is balling. Edgecomb looks good. Embiid isn't playing back-to-backs but he's not as bad as he looked opening night - 25/7/5 on 52.9% FG tonight. Supporting cast looked good. PG isn't even playing yet. You're never going to bet on a team that's relying on Embiid and PG's health, but man if everyone stayed healthy...

Ahd Ballmer is allowed in the arena courtside too...

Harden held scoreless in the 2nd half, 7mins left in the game. This one's over

Clippers need to rebuild. All that money for washed up players is not a winning strategy.

Clippers should aspire to score more than 80 points.
